So today, me and my partner go in to do positioning and bed bath check offs, today was our 2nd clinical, we started last Monday(me and my partner had to come back today b/c we moved to slow) So anyways, we go in and we missed verbalizing "put on gloves" for oral care, my partner forgot to wash the butt cheeks and she couldn't mitter her side of the bed. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but I know I did things wrong he just didn't say anything to me. He looks at us and tells us that he's letting us slide with these and that we can only fail two labs. Talk about pressure and anxiety!!!!!
I think we're moving too fast, first thing when we walked in last monday was our first day. The first thing we did was wash our hands (he didnt' teach us how) we just got up and did it and he told some things that were wrong while we were doing it. Then we went into positioning, again he didnt teach us, show us videos, nothing.... Iguess we're expected to know how before our first day??? Then we went onto bed bath, making occupied bed, and transfering to wheelchair and stretcher!!! Did anyone else go through this on their first day. It's like he expects us to know how to do everything already and then this monday was checkoffs for all that stuff. By the way, I failed handwashing TWICE.I know what I'm doing wrong and he doesn't give me time to verbalize it as soon as I do it he's like "your contaminated" and then I have to stop. I really feel like he wants me and my partner to fail because he thinks we don't know how to do things. I feel so discouraged but I'm not giving up.
